BACH TO BALKANS

Ewa Lovrenović: oboe and cor anglais
Christian Elin: bass clarinet and soprano saxophone

"L'anche" is the French word for "reed" - the small piece of wood that gives the woodwind instruments their name. With Ewa Lovrenović and Christian Elin, a musician duo is on stage who brings the audience to five different woodwind instruments in various combinations: oboe, English horn, soprano saxophone, bass clarinet and alto flute - les anches variées.

The two woodwinds have placed works by their personal favorite composers at the center of the program: Bach and Handel, French music by Eugène Bozza and Francis Poulenc as well as some Balkan jazz pieces by the Austrian Georg Breinschmid specially arranged for this line-up.
